    Rawal Lake park loses half of tree cover in 2 decades

    Rawal Lake park has lost 50% of its tree cover over two decades due to urban expansion and pollution, as shown by images from the Pakistan Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (Suparco). The Pakistan Environmental Protection Agency (Pak-EPA) found hazardous waste along the lake and plans to plant 500,000 seed balls to address deforestation. Global Forest Watch data indicates Islamabad lost 14 hectares of tree cover between 2001 and 2025, driven by settlements and infrastructure.
